Fishing in Ireland Could Soon Come to an End
Rising North Atlantic temperatures are causing concern for the fishing industry as fish migrate north to colder waters, potentially putting livelihoods at risk. This shift is affecting fish species like cod, which prefer cold waters, and could impact highly prized species such as mackerel and blue whiting. These changes, coupled with Brexit-related fishing quota cuts, are raising significant challenges for the Irish fishing industry and prompting calls for policy changes to address both climate change and Brexit’s impact on fishing.
